Description: | A copper-alloy hooked tag, measuring 31mm in length. The tag has been cast in one piece and has a trapezoidal-shaped loop above the plate. The plate is circular in plan with a diameter of 14mm and is semi-sircular in cross-section. It has a relief head or bust and the dress hook must be held with the loop in the left hand and the hook pointing to the right to keep the decoration unpright. The hook is 13mm in length but is not complete due to an old break, it is curving backwards at the break. This hooked tag is likely to have been a dress hook and is early Post-Medieval in date. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
